Good morning! Taking a family trip to Mexico and was wondering about immunizations. Please respond if you've taken a trip to Mexico recently and what vaccines you and your family got or didn't get. Thank you!

TwinRix is for hepatitis. We had to get an RX from a doctor, go buy the vial, and then go back and get the shots. You have to get it so many days in advance for it to be effective so check with a pharmacy. Also, we took Dukoral which is otc but the pharmacy may have to order it in. It prevents upset tummies and diahhrea, but it also has to be taken so many days in advance. Those are the only two that you need. Best advice is to talk with your pharmacist.
